Bwahahahahahahahaha
Awesome.
Good job jay hawks
I hear Democratic civil rights attorney James Thompson is already going to file for the 2018 race
Another LSM narrative bites the dust...
A razor close win is still a win!
ESTES-TRUMP VICTORY!
FAN-tastic! I said a prayer, hoping for this outcome!
So. Much, Winning!
It’s, ‘The Trump Effect,’ no doubt! :)
How many Illegals voted Illegally in this election?
Glad Estes won, but WHY was this such a close election in a deep red state like Kansas?? And why is Gov. Brownback (supposedly) so unpopular?
Sorry Commies, we normal people have NOT given up on Trump at ALL!!! ;)
According to our Never Trumpsters, this would be a walk in the park of the rat candidate.
So let me get this straight...a candidate wins by 6 percentage points and that’s a narrow win. He won by around 6500 votes in what undoubtedly was a smaller turnout than last November during a hotly contested presidential election. Yet the reporter still has the gall to compare tonight’s margin to the naturally much larger margin from last November. Cute. Highly manipulative, but cute in a snake-like way.
The margin here is concerning, but the question is whether the Democrats can keep this kind of energy up through 2018. And if they can get their voters to the polls in a mid-term.
Those are both pretty tall hills.
Estes had won 52 percent of the vote to 46 percent for Thompson. The Republican’s margin was just under 6,500 votes. By contrast, Pompeo’s narrowest victory, in 2014, was by just under 70,000 votes...
If 6,500 votes gave him a 6 percent lead, WHAT THE HELL DID POMPEO WIN BY with his lowest being 70k!?!
Must have been astronomical.
Found it.
67 to 33!! Good Lord!!
This is good. Some of the Dems are trying to act pleased, because it was closer than it should have been. But there were a number of factors at work here, including the fact that Estes was the state treasurer under the seriously unpopular Sam Brownback. And Estes apparently ran a lackluster campaign. A win is a win!
Rush Limbaugh deserves a lot of credit for this win.
Keep these margins in mind as Pompeo won by much more. This is a deep red state. Think of a swing state or a state that is red but not this red. We can’t get complacent because the angry mobs at the townhalls WILL vote. One of the papers (WaPo I think) had an article where they talked to people in Kansas. Some of the people are frustrated with the party there. Brownback has a low approval rating around 25%, and apparently people didn’t like him vetoing the Medicaid expansion. That ties in to my point that Trump will have to replace and ensure that people that can’t get coverage are insured. That could be an opening the Dems use for sure in 2018 and 2020.
Yay!!!!
